Using the Onscreen Controls to Adjust Vignette Shapes

The X Center, Y Center, Softness, Size, and Aspect parameters can all be adjusted via on-
screen controls in the left-hand image of the Preview tab.

Note: Although you can also view the outlines that correspond to these onscreen
controls in the Preview display of the Scopes window when you turn the Vignette
Outline button on, this outline has no onscreen controls that you can manipulate. You
can only use make these adjustments in the Previews tab.

To move the vignette:

m

Drag anywhere inside or outside the shape in the Previews tab to move the vignette in
that direction.

The X Center and Y center parameters are simultaneously adjusted. Color uses the same
coordinate system as Final Cut Pro to define position.

To resize the vignette:

m

Drag any of the four corners of the vignette to resize the vignette relative to the
opposite corner, which remains locked in position.

m

Option-drag to resize the vignette relative to its center, visible as green crosshairs.

m

Shift-drag to resize the vignette while locking its aspect, enlarging or reducing the
shape without changing its width-to-height ratio.

Depending on the operation you perform, the X and Y Center, Size, and Aspect
parameters may all be adjusted.
